An image forming apparatus for forming an image on papers in response to the image information of an original on an original table is provided with a reading unit for scanning the original, and also with x- and y-direction moving mechanisms for moving the reading unit two-dimensionally at the time of scanning operation. The x- and y-direction moving mechanisms are provided with first and second carriages for holding and moving the reading unit in x- and y-directions. X- and y-direction display lines are put down on the first and second carriages, respectively. When the first and second carriages are moved, therefore, their display lines display on the original table an image forming area which the reading unit can read.
